    APR DTR6054 Direct Turbocharger Replacement System

    I'm in NY. Keep in mind, even with the higher IAT's my car still did perform OK. Just not to its full potential as I've noted before. That's why the aftermarket intercooler is something that's highly recommended with this kit. But overall, my car was still quicker than it was with a stage 2 kit...

    APR DTR6054 Direct Turbocharger Replacement System

    Thank you! Good to know. Just out of curiosity, do you know if there are any updates on the horizon for the Base and LPFP/HPFP people?

    APR DTR6054 Direct Turbocharger Replacement System

    Hey @Arin@APR Question for you, I'm still running the v1.1.1 93 Octane version of the tune. This was from May of 22'. Have there been any new updates since then ? This is for the APR DTR 6054 HPFP & LPFP kit for the R.

    APR DTR6054 Direct Turbocharger Replacement System

    Great info here! Thank you. I will use your advice. Would you recommend I start with 100% water too? I keep reading that depending on the methanol content, it can mess with the AFR, and for specifically only cooling charge temps, distilled water is the best.

    APR DTR6054 Direct Turbocharger Replacement System

    I'll reach out to them and post their thoughts. More or less throwing up more info for others wanting to do the same thing with the DTR. It appears to be a Spulen throttle pipe That's a tough one just because I don't have any great logs of this. I'd like to say I'm usually in full boost after...

    APR DTR6054 Direct Turbocharger Replacement System

    Been a minute since I've posted... I finally pulled a trigger on the methanol kit. Will install it this winter and hopefully that will cure all my IAT issues. Went with a AEM unit and a aftermarket throttle pipe with a bung already there, looks pretty straight forward. Curious if there are any...

    APR DTR6054 Direct Turbocharger Replacement System

    I'm really thinking running a aftermarket DP would help turbo lag with the DTR. But at that point, you're right, you'd have to have a custom tune for it and it defeats the whole purpose of being emissions legal. I'm still planning on hooking up a meth kit with my car over the winter, I really...

    APR DTR6054 Direct Turbocharger Replacement System

    This may be a loaded question and perhaps something to work with APR about.. but has anyone else with the DTR kit experienced the harsh shift into 3rd yet? Did some testing in Mexico yesterday, and even with low IAT temps (70F), the car still did it which was really weird. I always figured it...

    APR DTR6054 Direct Turbocharger Replacement System

    Just an update, car passed the NYS emissions! With flying carpets as trailer park boys would say. I actually used a bosch one as well, I got it from FCP euro.

    Also, just for proofs sake. Yes I know the evap monitor isn't set, I have alot of fuel in the tank so that didn't set yet.

    APR DTR6054 Direct Turbocharger Replacement System

    That was in august, this month is a 1975 Yamaha DT250. It's a project. I'll be restoring it to its former glory over the winter. Something about ripping a 2 stroke on the street just feels so wrong but so right at the same time.

    APR DTR6054 Direct Turbocharger Replacement System

    Hey guys! I haven't been on here in a bit. Bought another bike project so my priority's have been out of wack. I've been working with APR to try and get my monitors all figured out for emissions on my car. Thankfully through some perseverance, I finally got it figured out! Turned out to be a...

    APR DTR6054 Direct Turbocharger Replacement System

    I've said it before.. I'll say it again. It's because of your intake temps and APR's safety parameters built into the tune. On a cold night and on the street after you've had plenty of air pass through the intercooler, your intake temps are going to be MUCH lower then sitting in a staging line...

    APR DTR6054 Direct Turbocharger Replacement System

    Been a minute since I've been here. I bought a 22 grom I've been messing with. Absolutely love it. Been dailying it and getting 130mpg average. The fleet 😂 And I sold my 15 mustang (finally). But the GF decided she wanted a fun car.. so now she's a proud owner of a 99 cobra convertible...

    APR DTR6054 Direct Turbocharger Replacement System

    I just want to clarify. I'm not wanting to start a "roast APR" momentum with what I said about my inconsistent results with the DTR. Like I said previously, I think they did a great job on their calibration otherwise. I just want some valid input from APR here about this issue. I think my...

    APR DTR6054 Direct Turbocharger Replacement System

    Thank you for looking into the fuel emissions monitor. That would be great to just see it set. I know myself and @riceburner are still having trouble with that. I hear what you are saying. As I've mentioned previously, with the bigger turbo, there is more pressure and heat so a good quality...

    Still true for me. I am not able to get the fuel readiness emissions to set.

    APR DTR6054 Direct Turbocharger Replacement System

    Thank you for this, this is what I was trying to portray here. Plus the turbo is bigger than stock, so it will produce more heat naturally. Basically, 100F IAT's is a very normal, typical number to be at. The only time you'd ever be at 80F or below is if it was winter for the most part, or if...

    APR DTR6054 Direct Turbocharger Replacement System

    I just want to clarify something before I get censored for "shit posting". For the most part, speaking on the behalf of us DTR owners out here, if we have anything "bad" to say it's mostly constructive criticism, especially since we already shelled out the $$ for the kit and the install. Plus...

    APR DTR6054 Direct Turbocharger Replacement System

    I opened a support ticket a couple months ago (June 1st). I had someone reach out to me a week later and say they would check the calibration if they found anything wrong. Haven't really heard back which I get it, they're busy and maybe they didn't find anything. I also think I briefly had a...
